To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Boreas, the north wind, purifies the air which the Harpies, tropical winds, had befouled with miasma. The deeper spiritual significance is seen in the action of hot gusts of passion, which, sweeping over the soul, do, like the Harpies, defile and destroy.
Sisters of the Harpies are the Sirens, whose songs entice as do the constant, never-satisfied desires for pleasure. But the yielding to these lower animal desires must bring pun- ishment. To describe the heart-sickness that follows as a natura...l consequence of such unworthy action the Greeks invented several myths, such as that of Tantalus, who was punishedf or gluttony by being made to suffer a gnawing hunger which he could never satisfy, and that of the daughters of Pandareos, who, though taught by goddesses, were led away by vain, selfish desires and became slaves of the Furies.
Physically, the second division of Athena myths includes those of the clouds. The highest cloud deify, Hermes, or Mercury, has a wide ministry, by means of the beneficent dew and rain.
